Summary (written by the submitters)
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is a mechanosensitive ion channel highly expressed in chondrocytes that maintains cartilage homeostasis during development and throughout aging. Mutations in the channel cause a wide range of developmental disorders including skeletal dysplasias. The gain-of-function mutations V620I and T89I have been identified to lead to brachyolmia and metatropic dysplasia, respectively.

Although it is known these mutations suppress hypertrophic differentiation, the mechanisms by which they alter chondrocyte response to mechanical loading remain to be elucidated. To determine the effect of these mutations on chondrocyte mechanotransduction, tissue-engineered cartilage was derived from differentiated CRISPR-edited human induced pluripotent stem cells harboring the moderate V620I or severe T89I TRPV4 mutations. Tissue-engineered hiPSC-derived cartilage was then subjected compressive mechanical loading at physiological levels, and RNA-sequencing was used to assess the transcriptomic signatures of wildtype and mutant tissue-engineered cartilage. Our results demonstrate that the V620I and T89I mutations lead to reduced mechanoresponsiveness, characterized by a lower number of differentially expressed genes and diminished activation of genes downstream of TRPV4 signaling and contributing towards the process of endochondral ossification. Changes in extracellular matrix production and organization were found to contribute towards the phenotype in V620I chondrocytes, whereas dysregulated retinoic acid signaling was linked to T89I, and disrupted proliferation was common to both. Our findings suggest that dysfunctional mechanotransduction arising due to the V620I and T89I mutations contribute to the developmental phenotypes observed in their respective skeletal dysplasias, introducing potential pharmacologic targets for these conditions.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE283659_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1194993 and SRA study SRP549885. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
